It takes about 3 to 4 weeks to see anything on tracker. You may also send an email to the id where you got the FP request from.
Thanks! It is weird, I typically saw in my wife application all the updates in the tracker after 2-3 days. Now it seems I do not see anything. Anyway, let's see how much time more I have to wait... :)

Just to clarify. I meant that you will see fingerprint processing complete about 3 weeks after you submit them.

Hi everyone, hoping someone clarify and help. I Applied for citizenship in July and just received response saying the eligibility part of the application was incomplete.

Need clarification Regarding this question: During your 5-year eligibility period, did you have a valid temporary resident status before becoming a permanent resident?

Here is my info and timeline

came to Canada july 2019 from the UK as visitor and the passport was stamped with date of Jan 2020

Decided to submit spousal sponsorship Oct 2019

Approved work permit Feb 2020 with exp 2025

Received PR Sep 2020

I have a few questions:

1. Does my visitor status from July 2019 until I got work permit in Feb 2020 count as temp res status, if yes what the end date of this status. Would it be Jan 2020 the stamp on my passport or Feb 2020 when I got my work permit

2. does my work permit count as temp res status?
And same question as above what’s the end date. I assume end date would be when I got my PR


3.Just before I got my PR I was in the US on vacation with my spouse and received notification that I got my PR while in the US. I travelled sep 2 until sep 11. I got my PR sep 6. When I returned to Canada on sep 11 I entered with my PR. Initially I was going to enter with my work permit but figured that no longer applied. So my question is this, for calculating when I was away from Canada during this period do I split it up? For example would it be away from Canada sep 2 to 5 as temp res and then away from Canada sep 6 to 11 as PR holder. when I tried to enter the entire timeline sept 2-11 as one entry away from Canada it gave me problems.

Any insight would be helpful
Thank you
AH

check the email from which you got your test invitation
Test email came from IRCC.DNCITSRYTESTS-EXAMENSSRYCITRN.IRCC <DNCITSRYTESTS@cic.gc.ca>. Looking at others in deciphering if it's Niagara, etc., I have no clue what mind would be. Any ideas?

Thinking now it could be Surrey, but follow-up question - how I would find the phone number for this office to inquire?
